Glam Punk Street Style- Make It Personal


You don't need an oversized budget to have style, just some imagination.

Hometown Style NYC: Kristina "KISS" Gress, a little rock 'n roll, a whole lot urban, and very downtown chic on a budget!

I've switched from the uber foofy "uptown" salon experience to a far more casual downtown vibe and can't say that my hair looks any different, if not just a bit more vibrant.

Gone is the pomp and circumstance of excess luxury, including the strange service of providing a clear plastic shield to cover your handbag -- --similar to a wet umbrella bag-- so it shouldn't incur any splatter during the hair styling process.

Kristina Gress

Chichi salon behind me, I now spot what appears to be an antique book with a dangling Mac power cord on the hair stylist's counter. It's a far cry from the de rigueur crocodile Birkin festooned in what boils down to a handbag condom at my former salon.

I had to know what this vintage/tech mash-up was and who belonged to it.

The suber fab and very incognito laptop case disguised as an old book belonged to equally fab and greatly adorned Kristina "KISS" Gress, an accessories designer and assistant to the shoe designer Ruthie Davis at RADesign.

Kristina was more than workin' the rocker warrior fashion trend that's so hot right now. Even though many of her accessories are right on trend, I have to say that Kristina's edgy punked out look seemsorganic to her personal style rather than the latest fashion affectation.

No cookie-cutter style here...

Obviously, with an interest in accessories, Kristina's look has a fantastic attention to itsplentiful and diverse details-- do note, that none carry a super crazy price tag. But all, create a look that is VERY personal. Peek at the style details and do think a bit out of the box the next time YOU get dressed.

Here's a list of what KISS was rockin' that day, in her words:
  • Double finger/half brass knuckle ring: NYC Soho street vendor 
  • Oversized Agate stone ring : Turkish Stone from street vendor at Portobello Market in Notting Hill, London (World famous street market) 
  • Skull bracelet: street vendor on Broadway in SoHo at NYC street fair - real cow bone carved into little monkey skulls 
  • Silver band cuff bracelet : engraved piece in honor of friend sent away to Iraq for the war 
  • Silver bike chain bracelet: Girl Props - shop in SoHo, NYC 
  • Black leather studded bracelet: Saint Mark's Place - Trash & Vaudville - NYC 
  • Fringe chain necklace - a gift from a friend traveling in Barcelona 
  • Bullet necklace on own chain: Saint Mark's Place - NYC 
  • Leather belt: thrift store in PA - added own snap closure and little studs 
  • Wife beater tank - Target 
  • Beige high waisted skirt- American Apparel 
  • Tights - ripped/torn by me - H&M 
  • Sunglasses - Ray-Ban 
  • Leather Bag - Kale 
  • Metallic Jazz flats - Steven Madden 
  • Antique book Macbook case- Tekserve, NYC

You would never have guessed!!!








I found this skirt and was just about to trow it when i discovered i could wear it as a skirt and I love it worn like this – what do you think, would you have ever guessed? I had to pinch it in with a belt as a bit big round the waist but other than that – very simple to transform!!! I brought the boots a few back off in the sale and saved over 100 pounds I was soooo excited – amazing bargain hay!? I love them they are soooo soft and sexy

Customized skirt





This was just a longish basic silk skirt i wanted to give it a bit more funk by sewing a few of the ends up into the skirt so it gave it that more edgy look!

DIY - ripped jeans







I just brought a pair of new jeans so instead of throwing my old ones i though i would go a bit scits on them!!!
I attacked them with a massive knife! and scissors and then ripped what i could. I think they will look better the more I wear them.

Simple but affective





I customized these jeans by ripping them (they were already pretty old and worn though) I also folded them up and sewed the fold in place (they were slightly to baggy at the bottom to look right with out some help from the old needle and tread!!!)
Loving the bf look. I think it justs look effortless but really cool at the same time.
A plain white tshirt and brown accessories finished the look of.




These are my new shoes I wore with the jeans - kill like hell but love em.
I think this look only really works with heels (well maybe just for me as im a midget!!!)
